Apache/Tomcat JSP confusion
Hi all,
I'm hoping somebody can help me with this or point me in the right
direction.
I have Apache 1.3.22 and Tomcat 4.0.1 up and running. I have been able
to deploy an application that uses the WARP connector and everything is
working great. The problem I am now having is that I want to mix some
simple JSP pages into my web site. These are not full blown
applications. They may contain something as simple as <%=myVar%> for
example. The problem is that the JSP isn't being processed on these
pages.
At my old job we were using Apache with Orion and this worked ok. It
may be something as simple as needing to load a module in Apache, I
don't know. Any ideas out there? I'm sure I'm just missing something
simple here.
Thanks,
Jeff

Try it out and see :) (But yes - move them under tomcat's webapp.)

Re: Apache/Tomcat JSP confusion

Thanks Tim, I found what I needed there to install jk. I upgraded
Tomcat to 4.1.24 and got the connection from Apache working. Using jk
cleared up some of my confusion -- it seems to be easier to configure.
Now I just need to figure out one last piece. Looking at the following
lines:
Alias /examples <CATALINA_HOME>/webapps/examples
JkMount /examples/servlet/* testWorker
JkMount /examples/*.jsp testWorker
I see that Apache is passing any calls to JSP pages in the examples
directory to Tomcat. Currently on my server I have my web sites running
from a series of virtual hosts. Say for example I has something like
this:
/path_to_virt_hosts/vhost_1/index.html
/path_to_virt_hosts/vhost_2/index.html
... etc ...
Now say I wanted to change the first virtual host to index.jsp. I tried
JkMount /*.jsp testWorker, but this tried to load the index page from
the webapps directory. I can see why this happened. My question is --
is it possible to process JSPs from current Apache virtual host
directories, or do I have to move them below the
<CATALINA_HOME>/webapps/ directory?
Sorry for the newbie questions. Just trying to get a hang of this.
Thanks again,
Jeff

Now I see a heading under Tomcat 5 for "JK Documentation" but the link
returns a 404 error. Is JK new to Tomcat 5?

Tim, thanks for the reply, but the warp connection is the one thing
that working right now. So what is jk anyway? Sorry, I'm mainly a
programmer, not a sys admin and now I have to be both. ;^) Perhaps
I'm just not making the connection here. I'm not seeing anything on the
Apache site unless you are talking about Jakarta, but I thought that
was basically Tomcat and such.
Also, would "jk" allow me to deploy applications AND have simple JSPs
mixed in with my regular HTML pages?
If you can point me to any documentation it would appreciate it.
Thanks again,
Jeff

Get rid of warp and use jk.
Warp is deprecated, unsupported and getting any kind of help will be hard.
